Were we discussing what a sensible author accepts? I thought we were discussing what the epub format was ABOUT.

If you're producing personal works of art for your own consumption only, that's something else. But, as I said, if the medium is known and fixed, what's the point of working within the constraints of epub? There are better ways of completely controlling layout and appearance in that case.
If you're pretending there can be no middle ground between "pour the text" and "fixed layout" with regard to the epub format, then you're either being very naive or being very disingenuous. It's not simply "Pour or PDF." Stop pretending it is.
